Britney Spears Update:
Britney Spears continues to make headlines following her custody meltdown, in which she refused to give her children to K-Fed's bodyguard, leading to an eventual hospital stay. Following Spears' detainment at the hospital she began dating paparazzi photographer, Adnan Ghalib.
Despite the rumors that Adnan was selling their pictures, and setting up photo ops with his agency, it became believed that the two were engaged and possibly trying for a baby, yet it is now known that the two have parted ways. It is also rumored that Spears felt so betrayed by Adnan that she placed a restraining order on him.
Oddly, following these rumors Spears continued her outlandish behavior by inviting random paparazzi to come party at her house. The paparazzi photographers claimed to have stayed until 6am when they told her that they had to leave, and she begged them to stay.
In more pleasant news, Spears finally showed up for the deposition of her custody battle, and sat for more than two hours. This was very impressive after Spears failed to attend many depositions, and showed up excessively late to others.
